TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to La Martre.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

La Martre is a municipality in La Martre; La Haute-Gaspésie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. La Martre is located at 49.2055°N, 66.1706°W.
La Martre occupies a rugged stretch of the coast where the land meets the cold, expansive waters of the St. Lawrence. It lies 39.5 km east-north-east of Cap-Chat, QC (from Cap-Chat, QC: bearing 72°T), and is situated 24.5 km east-north-east of Sainte-Anne-des-Monts. The terrain rises sharply from the shore, defined by the steady, persistent flow of the Rivière à la Martre, which carves a path through the earth before emptying into the sea near the Les Sauteux. Beyond the immediate coastal cliffs, the landscape transitions into wilder reaches, with Lac à Philibert-Henley resting in the quiet interior approximately 9 km away, while the vast, forested expanse of Parc national de la Gaspésie waits inland at a distance of 31 km. As evening approaches, the light here turns a pale, translucent silver, catching the spray from the river and casting long, sharpening shadows across the stones of the shoreline. Life in La Martre has long been shaped by the presence of the water and the necessity of adapting to a climate that demands resilience. The economy remains linked to the bounty of the sea and the traditions of those who have worked these shores for generations, maintaining a focus on maritime activity and local resourcefulness. The village carries a distinct character, defined by the salt-heavy air and the constant, low-frequency hum of the tide pulling against the jagged rocks. Even as the modern world shifts, the daily existence of those living in La Martre stays grounded in the physical realities of the terrain, where the wind coming off the St. Lawrence dictates the pace of the day and the quiet endurance of the people.
La Martre se dresse face à l'immensité du Saint-Laurent, là où le vent marin sculpte le caractère de ses habitants avec une rigueur tenace. Sur les rives de la Rivière à la Martre, le quotidien suit le rythme des marées et des embruns, imprégné par l'héritage de ceux qui ont su apprivoiser ce littoral escarpé. La lumière déclinante y révèle une terre austère, située à proximité des Sauteux, où le silence des espaces sauvages se fait entendre avec une clarté singulière. À quelques lieues de là, le Lac à Philibert-Henley dissimule ses eaux paisibles sous la protection des forêts denses, tandis que les sommets lointains du Parc national de la Gaspésie dessinent une ligne sombre contre l'horizon, rappelant la proximité des terres intérieures. La Martre conserve, dans son architecture tournée vers les flots et dans la rudesse de son climat, une identité forgée par la mer et la roche. Ici, chaque geste est dicté par une patience héritée, celle des familles qui ont bâti leur existence entre le courant salé et la protection des massifs. Le paysage, brut et dépouillé, impose un respect immédiat, transformant chaque lever de soleil sur le rivage en une expérience solitaire et profonde, loin du tumulte des mondes pressés.
